I got my TPM 1.2 device in today. It's working with Windows 10 which recognizes it and says it's ready for Attestation and Storage. Mine isn't an Intel board, but it is Gigabyte and made about the same time frame.
Did you get your 1.2 device and try it out?
I know it's not really necessary except as an anti-cheat for certain games (which I don't play) but I figured why not now that the price of these things came way down. I also imagine Microsoft could start using it more to enhance security, even with Win10. I know they use it for storing bitlocker keys and pretty sure for storing the PIN hash when using a PIN to log on.
